Yes, I am planning.
Please wait.
Thank you!
Quanghao.

I connected my transformers with jumpers and tested the DAC. Everything is working perfectly so far. All digital inputs and USB are working with 44Khs PCB. I still need to test the at higher rates, but so far it is excellent. The new metal remote is great. I'll let the DAC burn for the night. The sound with PS Audio headphone amp is already excellent.

Now I just need to complete my transformers PCB...

Hi Quanghao,

Could you let me know which RCA chassis connectors you used with the DAC and where these can be bought? I really like these connectors and I would like to use them in my other projects too.

If anyone else knows where to get these connectors... please let me know.

baMarek · 2014-06-08 11:57 am

Corpius, they look like Deltron 43-028.

palmito · 2014-06-08 12:21 pm

I pm'ed Quanghao about the same question. Are there any equivalent pin compatible pcb rca jacks?

I think you can look for product code RJ-140GT. I may be wrong but I think it is an OEM for more than one company.

Algar_emi · 2014-06-08 5:15 pm

I think these RCA connectors are Vampire Part No: PCB2F/A

I'm listening to 96Khz and 192Khz/24 bits files with the USB interface and JRiver and the sound is now, WOW

The HQ Reference DAC really sings with hires files! I can't wait to try DSD files

palmito · 2014-06-08 5:44 pm

Thanks Algar_emi and baMarek!

Algar_emi · 2014-06-08 8:23 pm

See this great page to get the same song in different formats to test our superb DAC

I'm listening to DSD64, just incredible! Using Windows and JRiver the paying from differents format and sample rate is just seamless. This DAC is really as good as any commercial offering.

OPPO Digital - Demo Tracks by DSD Pioneer Musician David Elias

Same song from David Elias ''Vision of Her'', in format: DSD64, Wave 88.2Khz/24bits, FLAC 88.2Khz/24bits, Wave 44.1Khz/16bits, MP3 320-44.1Khz

Don't forget to support David Elias and buy his CD to support his music
